ok guys, i've turned the temperature up to 30 celsius. fish seem happy enough and the spots have spread a bit more on them. i was wondering about using super ich cure meds. does anyone have any thoughts on doing this, has anyone used it and if so how did it work out and what do you need to do...

I've read a few reviews on this saying it's great for water changes but i've not found anyone saying how good or not so good it is for cleaning the gravel - any thoughts??

Hi fluttermoth - your one seems to get the thumbs up with people. Million dollar question .. do you have to suck it to get it started??

As mine's only a small tank is there anything good enough that doesn't require syphoning into a bucket but has it's own little pouch? The Mrs will have a fit if I get fish water all over her new carpet!! lol.

After doing a little reading up on Bettas it does look like it may not be a good idea to keep one with neons. Would a small discus work? I know in time it would outgrow the tank but a friend of mine keeps discus and would happily adopt it from me at that point. Basically I was looking for...

Oooh I didnt think neon's were fin nippers!! What pair of centrepiece fish would you suggest?

hi fluttermoth, thanks for the welcome and good point about the siamese fighting fish, just a male it is then - have my eye on a stunning red one! (was also looking at a fine black gravel or sand which would work for the corys i think) hi blesser13, thanks also for the welcome - are you saying...

Hello! I'm about to venture into the the world of tropical fish keeping woohoo! I have a Juwel Rekord 60 (54l) cycled tank and all I need to do now is the fun bit .. add fish! Question is what can I have? What I would like is the following and I wondered if this would be ok? 8 or 10 neon...
